Well, election time is a week away. Who will come through for the tracks, the Republicans or Democrats? Both? Or nobody? If you reply to this, stay away from the minor issues like jobs, the economy, health care, education, wars, corruption, etc, and concentrate on the major issue of slots at the track.

The judge that awards the retroactive money to us owners that deserve it will show me the money.

The slots are a major issue to tracks in Illinois, but to this state and its elected officials it is a small pimple issue among so many other bigger issues. Just wait until the property tax issue comes to full bore after the election. Lets hope they pass slots!

So, you're saying then that nobody will get Dan the slots money his stock portfolio needs to pay higher dividends and bonuses?Can we stick to Dan's question, please?

His question was answered here, now find something else to complain about:

In terms of racing they will listen to whichever lobbyist representing whichever group makes the biggest campaign donation. Usually that is NOT racing sad to say.

In NJ the casino lobby outspends the horse racing lobby 100 to 1...who do you think a whore politician will listen to?

I'm sure it will be no different in Illinois. Sure a politician who represents a heavily agricultural district may want to help racing but he'll be no match for anyone else in terms of money. If the politicians make a good buck and it helps racing, then pro-racing/slots legislation gets passed.

I'm not overmatched. It seems Janine took issue with something else I had written and scratched it out. Someone must have raised a sweat over it and asked for her to comply with their own personal doubts and insecurities. Was it you?
